you should change the oil as the used oil contaminants
can damage the engine.

for the engine but also performs a thorough cleaning of the fuel system,

Don’t use parking brake :-
The longer use of parking brake makes the brake
pads stick to the rotor. Instead, block the tires
with the help of tire stopper.
